School Counseling
Providing educational, social/emotional, and career support to students
School counselors support student learning through three areas of development: educational, social/emotional, and career.
- Educational development focuses on study skills, using resources, academic strengths, and future educational planning.
- Social/emotional development focuses on socialization, self-esteem, relationships, chemical health and citizenship.
- Career development focuses on career awareness, interests and skills, using resources, and connecting academic classes with future career decisions.
Services are provided through classroom lessons, individual and group counseling, and other methods. Parents are encouraged to contact their child's school counselor with any questions or concerns.
